Degradation of pesticides by the ligninolytic enzyme Laccase : optimisation of in vitro conditions, immobilisation and screening for natural mediators [PDF]
, 2013 Pesticides are widely used in many industries but the majority reaches non-target organisms or locations through point or diffuse sources. Understanding conditions for their degradation is therefore important.

Functional synergy and genomic linkage of glyphosate resistance traits in Canada fleabane
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.Stacking target‐site and non‐target‐site glyphosate resistance mechanisms in Conyza canadensis results in strong synergistic effects. This study quantifies gene × gene interactions and maps linked resistance loci, advancing our understanding of herbicide resistance genetics and informing management strategies.

Overexpression of G10-EPSPS in soybean provides high glyphosate tolerance
Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2019 Glyphosate is a highly efficient, broad-spectrum nonspecific herbicide that inhibits the 5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase (EPSPS)-mediated pathway of shikimic acid.

Pest Management Science, EarlyView.We report the first confirmed global case of Poa annua evolving resistance to indaziflam applied both preemergence and early‐postemergence. Resistance intensified under cool temperatures, was not reversed by metabolic inhibitors, and was often linked to multiple resistance, underscoring urgent needs for integrated weed management.

Has the Striga problem been solved? A field perspective critique of recent progress
Pest Management Science, EarlyView.The potential field efficacy of recently proposed breeding, biocontrol, suicidal germination, gene editing and transgenic solutions for Striga control is critically evaluated and mostly found wanting improvements. Abstract Three root‐parasitic witchweed (Striga) species can cause up to total loss of grain and legume crops for millions of farmers in ...

Herbicide impacts on exotic grasses and a population of the critically endangered herb "Calystegia affinis" (Convolvulaceae) on Lord Howe Island [PDF]
, 2013 Introduced perennial grasses are capable of altering the habitat of native species, causing reductions in population size and vigour, and potentially affecting life-history processes such as survival, pollination and seedling recruitment. We examined the

The continuing significance of chiral agrochemicals
Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 4, Page 1697-1716, April 2025.In the time frame 2018–2023, around 43% of the 35 chiral agrochemicals introduced to the market (herbicides, fungicides, insecticides, acaricides, and nematicides) contain one or more stereogenic centers in the molecule, and almost 69% of them have been marketed as racemic mixtures of enantiomers or stereoisomers.
